ZOLTÁN LABAI

Selected Chess Compositions I.

1968-1982

Zoltán Labai sa narodil 1.10.1942 v maďarskom

Debrecíne, ale už o rok neskôr sa presídlil na

Slovensko do Veľkého Kýru neďaleko Nitry, kde

žije dodnes.

Od skončenia školy pracuje v poľnohospodárstve

ako agronóm. So šachom ho zoznámil otec.

Šachovou skladbou sa začal zaoberať ako

dvadsaťročný a svoju prvotinu uverejnil v

Roľníckych novinách v roku 1964.

Do roku 1982 zložil 254 šachových skladieb (z

toho 24 spoločných), spomedzi nich 109

dvojťažiek, 93 trojťažiek, 17 mnohoťažiek,

9 pomocných matov a 26 samomatov.

Za svoje skladby získal 147 vyznamenaní, z toho

48 cien (13 prvých).

V Albumoch FIDE uverejnil 14 úloh (14 bodov).

Rozhodoval 5 skladateľských súťaží.

Na majstrovstvách Československa 1969-1971

bol piaty v dvojťažkách, štvrtý v trojťažkách

a tretí v mnohoťažkách.

V rokoch 1979-1981 obsadil v dvojťažkách a

trojťažkách 2. miesto.

Výborné výsledky dosiahol v I.-III. albumoch
č

eskoslovenských šachových skladieb

v období 1972-1978.

Zoltán Labai was born on October 1, 1942 in

Debrecen, Hungary. Only one year later he has

moved to Veľký Kýr, Slovakia, nearly Nitra. Here

he is still living.

After finishing the schools he works in agriculture

as agronomist. His father learned him chess.

At the age of 20, he started composing. The

pioneer problem of him has been published in the

newspaper Roľnícke noviny 1964.

Until 1982 he has published 254 chess problems

(including 24 joint ones), of them 109 twomovers,

93 threemovers, 17 moremovers, 9 helpmates and

26 selfmates.

He has won 147 awards, of them 48 Prizes (13

first). 14 problems (14 points) were selected for

FIDE Albums.

He has judged 5 composing tourneys.

In Czechoslovak Composing Championship 1969-

1971 he finished as follows: 5-th in twomovers,

4-th in threemovers and 3-rd in moremovers.

In the same competition 1979-1981 he was 2-nd

in both twomovers and threemovers.

He also reached excellent results in I.-III.
